The 500-square-foot house will be built for a previously homeless person or persons.

American Tobacco is looking for 12 sponsor organizations to contribute $2,500 each and then send a team to participate in the construction of a holiday playhouse. Each playhouse will be displayed at American Tobacco and auctioned off during the annual Winter Wonders celebration.

Prior to being auctioned off, the playhouses will be on display in Diamond View Park throughout the holiday season. Visitors to the Durham Performing Arts Center and American Tobacco Campus will have the opportunity to stroll through the playhouse village and bid on the houses, mid-November through the end of December.
